I fly a lot and carry both a Kindle (1) and a Sony PRS 505. I've never had a problem with my readers in flight or afterward, either.

I do remember the post you mentioned -- it was a K2 which got errors and they were tracked down to bad solders (or bubbles in the solder) which lost contact at low air pressure. As I remember the posting, Amazon replaced the defective unit.
